This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re diving into the benefits of family dinner (we’re feeling VALIDATED), baby shower do’s and don’ts (including one MAJOR mistake we made), and an in-depth review of the Karen Read trial (yep, you read that right).

Before all that… we’re in Vancouver!!!! Our FIRST international episode (unless someone digs up that one from the lost files). Harrison rapid-fires his travel recs to help YOU plan your next trip (sorry in advance—he named a chain lol). We also get into how our parents’ habits shaped us, the joy of Sunday night dinners, and a new rule that has completely SAVED movie night.

Then the fun stuff—our picks for the absolute BEST gifts for new moms (the last one may surprise you). And in Things We DMed: the most attractive (and unattractive) hobbies a man can have, plus… Gen Z is apparently sucking on WHAT?!

OK LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
